(NEWSER) – A Florida man allegedly imprisoned his girlfriend in his house all day Friday and beat her savagely—because he dreamed she had cheated on him, CBS Local reports. She finally called for help when her boyfriend, Carlos Gascon, 27, passed out around 7pm at her Summerland Key home. The sheriff's department says that Gascon threatened her, sliced her leg, put a knife to her throat, splashed hot coffee on her, and threw her down on a glass table so hard that it broke, the Miami Herald reports. Oddly, Gascon is also said to have thrown his own dog on the ground and held its neck down with his foot.
